Two quick answers:


First, no, a RAW file cannot be seen without computer manipulation of
some sort. *But neither can a JPG or TIFF or anything else. *No matter
what format it is, it is just a bunch of 0s and 1s. *So unless you can

Not seen the Matrix recently ? :-)


I don't remember the exact title of the book, but Johnny Mnumatic also
comes to mind -- about a guy transporting (too much) data in his brain.


I know that feeling. One of the joys of working in the embedded
software industry :-(
